Metaphysics is the study of the ultimate nature of reality. The two terms that branch off from this are cosmology and ontology. Cosmological is the study of order and organization, sometimes used in the sense, order in which our existence came: God-earth-us. Everything is connected and driven by a purpose to fulfill a certain goal in life. In order to fulfill this goal, life generates many systems among species. For example, all living species have a system that generates reproduction and within that system, one purpose generates another purpose in order to reach that goal.
Aesthetics is the study of beauty and things perceived with the senses. Aesthetics are pleasing to the senses so humans spend their life seeking beauty. The goal of beauty is to create an aesthetic experience for organisms to enjoy and to attract species of the opposite sex to one another. If it were not for aesthetics, attraction would not exist among species, thus the opposite sex would not be drawn to each other and reproduction would not happen so life may stop existing all together.
